Description

We report new measurements of the neutron-deuteron elastic scattering cross section at energies from 135 to 250 MeV and center-of-mass angles from 80 degrees to 130 degrees. Cross sections for neutron-proton elastic scattering were also measured with the same experimental setup for normalization purposes. Our nd cross-section results are compared with predictions based on Faddeev calculations, including three-nucleon forces, and with cross sections measured with charged particle and neutron beams at comparable energies.
